Professors' Interactional Attributes: How Do They Relate to One Another?

Abstract

For 86 professors, ratings on the Classroom Behaviors Questionnaire indicated that what professors did to enhance students' success was perceived as important to their students (r = .85), but these scores were not correlated significantly with their scores on the Revised Love/Hate Checklist (Form 1), the Revised Love/Hate Checklist (Form 2), or the Personal Attribute Inventory for Children; however, scores on the latter three inventories were significantly intercorrelated for male professors. For female professors, only their self-concept scores significantly correlated with how they interacted with others. These findings seem to be consistent with prior research.
